DDoS & Application Attack Hub

Combating the growing frequency and complexity of DDoS- and application-level cyberattacks requires visibility, analysis and continuous threat intelligence to stay atop current threats and ahead of emerging ones.

Via correlation and validation of real world attack data from different sources, Radware’s DDoS & Application Attack Hub provides a comprehensive, in-depth analysis of network and application attack activity, quarter over quarter, threat by threat. It analyzes network and application attack activity by industry, attack vectors, on-premise vs. cloud, and much more.

Data for the DDoS & Application Attack Hub is sourced from Radware’s worldwide network of cloud and managed services and Radware’s Global Deception Network.

DDoS Attack Activity

Distributed denial-of-service attacks seek to impact the availability of key business services and/or infrastructure. Understand which regions and industries experience the highest volumes of DDoS attacks and learn about trends in DDoS attack sizes and volumes

DDoS Events and Volume

Blocked malicious events, normalized per customer

Blocked malicious events

Unsolicited Network Activity

Powered by the globally distributed sensors that comprise Radware’s Global Deception Network (GDN), unsolicited events include DDoS backscatters, spoofed and nonspoofed scans, and spoofed and nonspoofed attacks. This data differs from DDoS and web application events due to the unsolicited nature of the event. Unsolicited events are random scans or attacks not targeting known services or a particular organization.
